Lovely singer-songwriter rocking ballads and intensity from the bass player from Camper van Beethoven.
Editorial review
A far cry from the surreal, wiseguy humor of Camper Van Beethoven, Victor Krummenacher's solo debut Out in the Heat is instead a serious and often poignant exploration of life as an openly gay man. Quiet and vaguely rootsy, the album is a showcase for Krummacher's skills as a songwriter -- whether adapting the writings of author David Wojnarowicz in "New Mexico" or capturing the life of an aging spinster in "The Antebellum," his songs are nakedly emotional and starkly beautiful. ~ Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide
Bio / Background
Roundly praised by the American gay press, thoroughly ignored by mainstream rock journalists and more popular than Nick Cave in Valencia, Spain, these are the sounds of co-dependent, alcoholic city living run amok in the outback. Featuring ex-members of American Music Club, Poi Dog Pondering, and King Missile. Experience the music of San Francisco's notorious A Great Laugh, and see what irony is all about.
Krummenacher's first full length solo CD, featuring various recordings done both solo and with his next band, the notorious A Great Laugh, this album represents a real transformation of Victor's abilities as a songwriter. The recordings represent the transition of a longtime band member going solo as well as undergoing more than a few personal trials and tribulations, which is to say it was written during a "dark phase."
Produced by Bruce Kaphan, Victor Krummenacher, & Chris Xefos.
